Y’all. Don’t come for me.
But, we need to talk.
Because apparently, in 2025, everything is demonic now.
A stuffed toy? Demonic.
A musical about a green witch who sings her feelings? Demonic.
A cartoon K-pop group hunting demons? VERY demonic.
And the latest star of Christian Facebook:
6 and 7 appearing together on anything ever created.
Like somehow if you see the numbers 6-7 on a receipt, the devil was your cashier.
I’m not kidding — people are spiraling.
“OH NO, MY TOTAL WAS $6.70! IS THIS A SIGN?”
Ma’am, the only sign is that you bought a Dr Pepper and a snack pack.
It’s giving early 2000’s $6.66 on a McDonald’s receipt panic energy.
But here’s the thing:
When everything becomes “demonic,” discernment disappears.
When we panic over shadows, we miss the real wolves.
Just like the boy who cried wolf, when we scream
“LABUBU IS A GATEWAY TO DARKNESS!”
but ignore actual bitterness, pride, cruelty, and sin…
we teach people not to take spiritual warnings seriously when the real danger shows up.
🎭 Wicked Isn’t Casting Spells on Your Household
I saw a whole thread where someone said Wicked is secretly about summoning demons. Well, if that’s the case, it’s been summoning them in my house since 2003. My kids have been firmly raised by their theatre kid mom.
It’s literally a story about political corruption, friendship, and a girl who is green because that’s the plot. If a Broadway belt note summons anything, it’s probably your inner theater kid.
Jesus did not die on the cross for us to lose our minds over a 20 year old musical, based on a 30 year piece of fan fiction based on an 85 year old movie and a 124 year old children’s book.
🧸 Labubu Is Creepy-Cute, Not a Portal
Labubu is a little weird-looking, sure.
So are half the toys in my kids’ rooms that make noises at 2 a.m. (Furbys, anyone?)
If toys were portals, my house would be Narnia.
Jesus cast out real demons.
He never said,
“Do away with all your collectibles, for they are spooky.”
🎶 K-Pop “Demon Hunters” Aren’t Recruiting Your Kids
A kids movie isn’t a demon seminar. It’s about three girls fighting very fictional, animated demons.
Paul literally walked through Athens, a city covered in idols, and instead of panicking, he learned the culture, used discernment, and engaged wisely (Acts 17:22–28).
Your kids watching a cartoon musical about a girl group won’t turn your children into demons any more than watching “Aladdin” turned us into genies.
And About This Whole 6–7 Thing…
This trend has become its own reality show.
People are convinced that:
- Seeing 67
- A price ending in 6.7
- A verse number like 6–7
- A street number like 67
- Or anything with a 6 near a 7
…is automatically demonic.
But let me ask you something:
When everything becomes a sign of the enemy… how will you recognize the voice of God?
If evil is in toys, musicals, numbers, and snacks, then it’s not in:
- gossip
- cruelty
- bitterness
- addiction
- selfishness
- spiritual pride
- injustice
The real demonic stuff is subtle, not obvious.
Scripture says Satan masquerades as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14).
He isn’t hiding in stuffed animals —
He hides in things that look harmless, appealing, affirming.
Fear makes us misidentify the enemy.
And friend, once you start seeing demons behind every dollar amount or every TikTok trend, you lose the ability to discern actual spiritual danger.
It’s like sanitizing your hands so aggressively you forget bacteria exists.
And I’m less afraid of two numerically sequential figures than I am the Christian sitting in the pew gossiping about literally everyone and disguising it as “prayer requests.”
📖 What the Bible Actually Says About Discernment
Here’s where the panic train jumps the tracks:
1. Not everything is evil. Not everything is good. God calls us to discern.
“Test the spirits.” — 1 John 4:1
2. God does not give us fear, panic, or superstition.
“For God has not given us a spirit of fear…” — 2 Timothy 1:7
3. Jesus warns about missing the real danger while obsessing over the tiny stuff.
“You strain out a gnat but swallow a camel.” — Matthew 23:24
4. Real defilement doesn’t come from toys, musicals, or numbers.
“Nothing outside a person can defile them…” — Mark 7:15
The issue is our hearts — not movies, toys or numbers.
📌 The Spiritual Danger of Crying “Demon!” at Everything
When Christians scream:
- “Labubu is demonic!”
- “Wicked is demonic!”
- “That K-pop theme is demonic!”
- “Numbers 6–7 are demonic!”
…we teach people that Christianity is superstition and fear instead of truth.
We also:
- trivialize actual spiritual warfare
- distract from sin that does destroy people
- build fear instead of faith
- make ourselves easy to dismiss by unbelievers
- exhaust everyone around us (including our kids)
Fear is loud, messy, and dramatic.
Discernment is quiet, truthful, and strong.
Jesus dealt with real demonic activity — and He didn’t need Facebook to tell Him what to fear.
Jesus didn’t rebuke toys.
He didn’t rebuke art.
He didn’t rebuke numbers.
He didn’t rebuke culture.
He rebuked:
- demons
- hypocrisy
- pride
- injustice
- hard hearts
- unbelief
- spiritual blindness
You know — the actual enemies.
Now, if you have actual conviction from God about something, then absolutely, do as you were told by Him. But, your conviction is between you and God, and cannot be applied to everyone.
Our job as believers is not to panic.
It’s to discern.
If Satan can’t deceive us, he’ll distract us.
And nothing distracts Christians faster than a “THIS IS DEMONIC” viral post.
✨ Guided Prayer
Lord, give me wisdom. Teach me to discern what is truly harmful and what is harmless noise. Quiet the fear in my heart and replace it with confidence in Your truth. Help me focus on the real battles — in my heart, my home, and my walk with You. Amen.
✨ Devotional Actions
- Spend 5 minutes today reading 1 John 4:1 and asking God for discernment over fear.
- Write down something you’ve labeled “bad” that might not actually be spiritually harmful — examine why.
- Pay attention this week to when fear tries to speak louder than truth. Identify the difference.
